Chris Waddingham

He joined Ison Harrison in November 2019, bringing with him extensive experience in commercial property law. His legal career began with managing plot sales for a national housebuilder, providing a strong foundation in the complexities of real estate transactions. Over time, he expanded his expertise to include part exchange properties and house purchases, gaining a comprehensive understanding of both residential and commercial property markets.

In 2007, he qualified as a solicitor specializing in commercial property, enabling him to provide expert legal guidance to a diverse range of clients. An interesting aspect of his career was his tenure at a previous firm, where he worked in a sports law department. There, he had the unique opportunity to handle legal matters for national and international sportspeople and television personalities, navigating the intricate legal landscapes of high-profile and media-related cases.

Throughout his career, he developed a robust skill set that includes contract negotiation, property development, and client relationship management. He is currently in the process of compiling case studies from previous work and looks forward to sharing these in the near future to illustrate some of the significant projects and challenges he has successfully managed.
